Overview

During this walk along winding Venetian canals, "cross-country" through peaceful idyllic squares, we discover together the hidden corners and history of the Sestiere Dorsoduro.

We walk to the stunning Church of St Sebastian, discover the history of the so-called "fistfighting bridges", a house now known as "the House of 7 Chimneys" and one of the last gondola yards in the city.

It is a small group tour in the sense of "slow tourism" to offer an authentic experience and to be able to respond to questions of the guests.
